• Do not use clay pots as these may scratch the glass-ceramic
surface.
• The diameter of the pot base must match that of the cooking
zone. Using pots that are too small causes energy wastage and may
damage the cooker hob.
• Use the lid if compatible with the type of food preparation.
• The pots must be suitably sized according to the amount of food
being cooked. Preparing small amounts of food in large pots is a
waste of energy.
• Foodstuffs that require long cooking times may be cooked in
pressure cookers.
• Cook potatoes and the various types of vegetables using little
water: the food will cook well, provided the pot is always properly
covered with the lid. Once the water reaches boiling point, lower the
heat setting to a level that ensures slow boiling.
